In fairness, Chrome/Chromium have their own set of issues. I use both browsers and come across crashes, poor renderings, bad performance, etc. I still prefer Firefox for a few extensions I use, though.
I stopped using FF when I left my previous job, synced up my bookmarks before I left but then was unable to retrieve them because I had not written down the access guid. I'll just sync with my Google account and be done with it!
Having been a user and developer for almost any time, I would never have relied on that! A simple bookmark export, spot check for some URLs, USB drive/email/FTP to somewhere. I've always done that when leaving jobs (along with other personal things or notes/application settings).
Maybe I'm too cautious, but I've always ended up with a good copy of my data.
- kamjam 14y agoTo be fair, I had a backup by doing a simple export, it was about a month old so I didn't lose anything important (and reason I did it this way) but the fact it worked that way did annoy me. I just like the way the Google products are much more synced with my life. I was a "work" email which syncs with work related stuff, and personal email with syncs with regular stuff. I still use both for cross browser testing, and at the moment I still use FF & Firebug but I am weaning myself off it. My day to day browser for everything is Chrome, in much the same way we all ditched IE but still had to occasionally use it for those sites "optimized" for IE.
